Can't lie, foods great but you guys gotta teach your servers to pay attention to customers waiting. This is the SECOND TIME we've come in and either been ignored, not greeted. First time was a food pickup, yesterday we came to dine-in & the server was a younger man that DID greet us- HE said he was going to clean a table, then proceeded to serve the other customers. We sat there waiting & watched another family come in and immediately get seated by another waiter. I'm not gonna sit there and beg for a table dude. We literally walked out and probably won't be back in the future. You guys need to understand that this is the best way to lose a customer for life, I will literally not come back here out of spite because that s**t is embarrassing. If it happened once, oh well. But twice? No thanks. read more

NEW FAVORITE RESTAURANT in town! Visiting family and we popped in for dinner. The food: I had the fajita combination and it was amazing! Great flavors! I was surprised by how much I loved it! We also ordered guacamole and some spicier salsa and that did not disappoint! It's truly spicy and I absolutely loved it! I ordered a Cadillac margarita and it was ok. I think it needed a little more Grand Marnier. The service: Our server was friendly and efficient. Our drinks, apps, and food were served at a good pace. The ambiance: For the white people - The restaurant name translated to English means Seven Seas. The interior design is very colorful and fun with accents of fish throughout. Everything was clean and lovely. Not only do I recommend 7 Mares, this place will now be a staple every time I come to town! read more

Excellent food and service - charming atmosphere! Definitely will return as menu is extensive. Margaritas high on our list, too!

Loved the interior decorations, especially the beautifully designed unique seats and tables, very comfortable. The food was excellent with huge portions. I had a combination fajita plate which I shared with another and there was still some left over, but we were stuffed! The refried beans were also yummy. We were served bean dip, salsa and chips when we sat down, quite flaverful and tortilla chips were light and crispy. Service was good and friendly. Will definitely be back, had a delicious experience at very reasonable prices. read more

Came by to try this place out since it's down the street from us and recommended by my neighbor months ago. The exterior felt super underwhelming so I wasn't sure what to expect when entering but I was really surprised by how inviting it was- for a moment I forgot I was in Oakley! The staff are super attentive and kind and provided great recommendations. We were given a bowl of chips along with a warm bean dip and a side of salsa which were tasty and filling enough to not get an appetizer although we did opt in for the mozzarella sticks for our little one. I'm not a fan of mozzy sticks but I had to try to ensure they weren't too hot and they were yummy! On to the drinks! We got the Jamaica and a hibiscus margarita which were delicious and not overly sweet. For our main course, I got a single flauta and two hard tacos while my husband got something equally as good. They were soo good and super filling that I couldn't eat my last taco but definitely got them to go. Definitely coming back for more! read more

Every time we come here the food is always fresh. Service is always great, the waitresses are super friendly. The decor is cute and fitting for a Mexican restaurant. I haven't had anything I didn't like here! read more

Wow, what a hidden gem! The service was top notch as was the food! We will be back and can't wait to try new things on the menu!

Here's the short n sweet: Food pretty darn good! Service great - attentive & welcoming. Ambiance - looks festive, feels okay, very stuffy. Things to get: Shrimp burrito, chile relleno, birria tacos. All great!! read more

Good and dependable. Good place for dinner and lunch. Food's pretty good too. Also good to take kids.

The workers over charged us for our food by $20 (not including the tip) and our food was overcooked. The workers did not provide good service. The only thing that's worth your time here are the micheladas, don't waste your time on anything else. read more

Food, service, & ambience is always very good here. My only complaint is that I wish they were closer haha Good portions! We LOVE the bean n chips! read more

Good people and food. I love this place. They have the biggest steak and shrimp burrito ever! It' can feed a family of 4-5.

Went here for dinner with a couple of my family members, great food. Great ambiance, and I love the art on the walls and tables. Almost felt like I was really in Mexico . Viva!! read more

Unassuming restaurant. Once inside, you're transported to a different place-vibrant colorful. Very friendly people, excellent service. I had the goat birria and it was very good. read more

The vibe is warm and welcoming. Staff is friendly and the food is great! Highly recommended fish tacos.

The fish tacos were topped with fresh pico de gallo and a nice squeeze of lime. I really liked their homemade tortilla chips and the spicy red salsa. read more

Fresh, Flavorful, and Worth the Drive 7 Mares Grill in Oakley is an absolute gem. The food is incredibly fresh and tastes fantastic--every dish feels thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. They've recently updated their interior, and it shows; the space looks clean, modern, and genuinely inviting. Even though it's a bit of a drive from Danville, it's absolutely worth the trip. Great food, great atmosphere, and consistently friendly service make this a spot I'm always happy to return to. Highly recommend for anyone who appreciates fresh, delicious meals and a comfortable place to enjoy them. read more

The food was really good, the place is really cute and had good music, service was a bit slow but overall we plan on returning!

The only thing giving this a 3rd star is the friendly staff. I must say that I am very disappointed with the cost of a taco salad! $21.20 for a taco salad! $17.99 for the salad and over $3.00 for the smallest side of pico ever! No specialty meats. Just pork. If I had driven just a bit further to La Costa, I would have payed $12.00! And gotten free salsa from the salad bar! Just reverse the numbers! read more

7 Mares Grill - Agua mineral preparada - Mexican Near Me - Oakley, California

We live pretty close to 7 Mares Grill and have been here a few times before, but that was quite a while ago. Had mixed experiences here but heard that they renovated their restaurant post-COVID, so we figured we would give them another try. When we walked inside the restaurant, it looked nice! We were seated right away and offered chips and salsa with bean dip. The salsa was flavorful and a little spicy and the bean dip was smooth and yummy. When it came time to order, I ordered two fish tacos and my wife ordered one shrimp taco. I enjoyed my fish tacos and consider them to be among the better ones I've had out here. The fish was moist, juicy, and cooked to perfection. My wife found her shrimp taco to be flavorful but the shrimp was tough and overcooked. I'll come back here again. I enjoyed the food and the service was good. read more

7 Mares Grill - Fish tacos - Mexican Near Me - Oakley, California

Called to place an order for pick up and was on hold for 7 min. Came in and I was still on hold. The place had a few tables but the two girls were in front. One just laughed that I was still on hold. The other girl took my order and just said she didn't tell me there was someone on hold. I would understand if they were busy but they weren't and to laugh in my face just very unprofessional. read more

I must compliment the Owner, Cooks and staff! Everything is excellent and I am hooked on your Bass dinners! Definitely my favorite Mexican meal in the area. Thank You read more

This is authentic Mexican at its best, the beans here are ridiculous nothing even close all the Seafood dishes are amazing, service is always fast food is always hot and fresh and the price is very reasonable you get a lot of food for your money, there are lots of Mexican restaurants in this area but this one is the best hands-down! read more

Service is good, sometimes they're friendly. Food is always good. But we started going there since 2021 and they got a little pricey!

I got an order delivered from DoorDash and the food was amazing. Two grilled chicken enchiladas with red sauce that came with beans and rice . I ordered a tiny guacamole and sour cream which complemented the meal . The chicken enchilada with green sauce was also very delicious as was the fresh crispy tortilla chips with the delicious bean dip . Give this place a try you will be glad you did . Bon appétit read more

i ordered a shrimp cocktail and a tostada, and the seafood tasted very fresh. the dining room had a lively and colorful atmosphere.

Good is a bit expensive, overall good flavor. The service was ok, it felt understaffed.

Best bean dip!!! We haven't tried anything we didn't like! All good! Enchilada plates, camarones plates, fajitas, mocajetes, etc..... ...so good, I forgot to take photos of the dishes before devouring all of them hahahaha (I managed to take photos before the last two plates were completely gone hahaha) read more

Our friends kept telling us about 7 Mares and they invited us to go with them yesterday. We ordered 2 beers a Peach Margarita on the rocks and a Lime Margarita blended. The lime was mine and it was so refreshingly good. Looking over the menu it was hard to choose. Being my first time there I wanted to get some thing I normally would get someplace else so I could compare. But then I saw something on the menu that I don't find anywhere and that is Tripas Tacos! Not everyone is a fan... And some of you might not know what it is, but I won't go into detail... I'll just say that I love them... If they are cooked right. Upon taking my order, the server asked how I wanted them cooked and that was a very good sign. I like mine crunchy and if they come soft, it's too chewy and not a fan of that. I also ordered a shrimp taco. My husband ordered enchilada dinner because that's his usual. I tried a taste of the red sauce off his plate and I really liked it. We absolutely loved our meal. Each of my tacos had their own type of sauce. Both were so tasty. My husband loved his enchilada dinner. We will definitely be going back. I want to try other dishes, but those tacos were so good. It's going to be hard not to order them again. read more

I was starving after a day of fishing. So keep that in mind. The fish-shrimp caldo was FANTASTIC! it came super hot which is a prerequisite. The flavor was perfect. Great friendly service and reasonably priced! The restaurant is a rainbow of colors. We scarfed. The table also had menudo and a tamale combo plate. I didn't taste any of my friend's stuff. They were hungry as well and looked very territorial. read more

Expensive for Mexican food that doesn't even stand out. They nickel and dime you for everything. $7 for a bottle of Coke?! $3 for 3 extra tortillas? Sorry, won't be back. read more
